WEBVTT - Single Best Idea with Tom Keene: Holger Schmieding & Dan Skelly

0:00:02.520 --> 0:00:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news. Single best idea is,

0:00:14.240 --> 0:00:16.960
<v Speaker 1>if you're in the equity market, follow bonds. You learn

0:00:17.040 --> 0:00:20.960
<v Speaker 1>this always the hard way by enjoying losing money. It's

0:00:20.960 --> 0:00:25.960
<v Speaker 1>an inverse relationship. Price up, yield down, price down, yield up,

0:00:26.320 --> 0:00:28.840
<v Speaker 1>and this morning, decidedly it was price up, yield down.

0:00:28.880 --> 0:00:31.000
<v Speaker 1>There was some real tension in the market in the

0:00:31.040 --> 0:00:34.320
<v Speaker 1>five six seven am hour. It got a little bit better,

0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:36.639
<v Speaker 1>but frankly, as the market's open as we tape this

0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:41.040
<v Speaker 1>not so nice out there, we'll have to see. We

0:00:41.080 --> 0:00:44.199
<v Speaker 1>had some good voices to talk to. The first one

0:00:44.240 --> 0:00:47.840
<v Speaker 1>we talked to was Holger Schmeting, just definitive at Berenberg Bank,

0:00:47.880 --> 0:00:52.480
<v Speaker 1>with a wonderful Transatlantic perspective. Holger Schmeting on tariffs.

0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:56.640
<v Speaker 2>Of course, the US tariffs are not yet fully reflected

0:00:56.680 --> 0:01:00.440
<v Speaker 2>in US consumer prices. There is some further upward pressure

0:01:00.440 --> 0:01:04.480
<v Speaker 2>on US consumer prices to come. Also, many raw materials

0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:07.880
<v Speaker 2>are telling a very different story, namely that global inflation

0:01:08.040 --> 0:01:11.640
<v Speaker 2>pressures will stay a little elevated or could rise over time,

0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:16.720
<v Speaker 2>and longer term simply labor shortages on both sides of

0:01:16.760 --> 0:01:21.080
<v Speaker 2>the Atlantic, and also longer term in China labor shortages

0:01:21.120 --> 0:01:24.800
<v Speaker 2>will probably mean in the end the rebound in wage pressures,

0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:28.759
<v Speaker 2>perhaps not immediately, but say next year and thereafter. So

0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:31.720
<v Speaker 2>I would not bet too much on global disinflation.

0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:36.440
<v Speaker 1>Olger Schmieding of Berenberg Bank. This morning, Dan Skelley joined us,

0:01:36.440 --> 0:01:41.000
<v Speaker 1>So Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, really really interesting discussion here

0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:45.479
<v Speaker 1>about the allocation now, but particularly about the stress of AI.

0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:48.120
<v Speaker 3>Let's listen number one. I think it's one of these

0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:51.160
<v Speaker 3>many examples of dissonance at the moment. On the one hand,

0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:54.240
<v Speaker 3>the market is fearful over AI spending. On the other hand,

0:01:54.240 --> 0:01:56.280
<v Speaker 3>of the market saying software is going to be disrupted.

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:59.640
<v Speaker 3>So I can't explain that one in terms of efficacy

0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:03.360
<v Speaker 3>versus is disruption. And look, I would say not all software,

0:02:03.400 --> 0:02:06.360
<v Speaker 3>not to be that completely out of consensus, but not

0:02:06.400 --> 0:02:07.720
<v Speaker 3>all software is created equal.

0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Dan Skelle here in a four day workweekis with Morgan

0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:14.280
<v Speaker 1>Stanley as well PCE inflation the back end of the week,

0:02:14.360 --> 0:02:19.160
<v Speaker 1>Michael McKee saying that's a key key economic data point

0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:22.399
<v Speaker 1>for maybe a fed on pause. We will see. We'll

0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:27.280
<v Speaker 1>have all in economics, finance, investment, and international relations for

0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:31.600
<v Speaker 1>you through this week on podcasts. On Apple, on Spotify,

0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:37.360
<v Speaker 1>on YouTube podcasts. It's single best idea
